I'll be harvesting several lbs of razor and feather caulpera this weekend...some will be going to a trusted LFS for re-sale(store credit for me)...the rest will be tossed. I've never shipped any but I'd be willing to help a member out if you're interested.

I think all refugium caulerpa is full of pods and probably there eggs. I know if my pods were roaches Terminex would have a feild day under my tank. :D

NM, I also would be interested in getting some of your clippings to start a 'fuge for my 200gal. I asked this a while back, but it was a bit OT in the thread, so you may not have seen it. I also would be very willing to pay the shipping and perhaps once I get my store opened in it's new location, could work you some really good deals. ;)

I have never shipped this sort of stuff but would be willing to send some to those that want it. I wonder what would be a good way to package it ...and I wonder how long it will last packaged. I'd hate to send some out only to have it dead on arrivial. I am willing to ship it off....steamboat...minireef....e-mail me shipping info and I'll send some your way. I guess I could go via UPS and trust ya'all to cover any expense involved. This weekend I'll be in Lubbock all day Saturday.....I plan to harvest and export excess macros Sunday.....maybe I'll wait to harvest until I get shipping instructions.:cool:

I haven't shipped any caulerpa but one of our members in New York has sent me some grape and racemosa twice. He packs it in a sealed quart size baggie of water, inside a larger baggie of water surrounded by crunched newspaper in a box. He has mailed it regular US mail which takes about 3 days to get to me. At least once it has sat on top of my mailbox in 90 degree heat until I got home from work and both times the caulerpa as been in excellent condition. The cost was $7 -$10 for shipping depending on the box size and weight. HTH

NM, I've sent it to several reefers and it needs to go second day unless you live very close and are pretty sure gound will not take 4 or 5 days. And double bag it.
